Sunday Dugout Discussion

The Gameweek continues with a pair of Sunday Premier League fixtures – beginning with United’s visit to Wolves, as Wayne Rooney sports the armband for thousands of Fantasy managers. Our Dugout Discussion chatroom is now open to catch the reaction from the Molineux clash, plus the encounter between Newcastle and Norwich later today.

Sir Alex Ferguson’s teamsheet brings mixed news for Fantasy managers. Wayne Rooney starts as expected, but Ashley Young drops to the bench with Antonio Valencia making his return from injury to earn a role on the flank. Danny Welbeck also starts and is likely to be out wide, with Javier Hernandez given the nod up front. Rafael lines up at right-back with Phil Jones missing out once again.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    Drenthe > Valencia tonight

    In order to do this I have to do one of the following.

    a) Skrtel > £5.6m

    or

    b) Enrique > £5.1m

    Who should I downgrade and who do you recommend I get in?

    Cheers in advance.

    Who to drop though, Silva or Dempsey?

    If I drop Dempsey I could get Pogrebynak for Ba next week. But he's playing better than Silva at the moment and it'd free up an extra £1.3m.
